TCS Interview Experience - Hyderabad, December 2015

Hi guys.

I'd like to give share my views on my TCS interview here.

The first thing is Written test. My written test was done in Sri Indhu Engineering College (Ibrahimpatnam, Hyderabad on December 2nd 2015). It takes 10 mins for Email Writing and 80 mins for Aptitude test. Coming to Email Writing, use all words even if you don't know meaning of them. I did it in the same way such that, I don't know the meaning of two words but added somewhere in the sentence.

Please save every time you complete the sentence. For aptitude test, my first suggestion for you is to carry calculator along with you. Around 5 problems my calculator did by trail and error method. Remaining things done by me. I attempted only 19 sums. In that 19, all are done if I know them exactly only i.e don't guessed and answered for a single bit at least. Please attempt only known questions even though they are few better to not guess and answer.

I got received a mail that I had completed my 1st round and this was happened 10 days later. So I prepared well (complete JAVA) and get ready for TR and MR which will be commencing within a week from the day I received the mail.

There was 32 members for each panel. I'm the 31st member in my panel. My panel contains 3 members. But I had done my TR and MR at a time with 2 members only as it's almost the end to the panel. My questions were as follows.

1) Tell me about yourself. (Yes. This was asked as part of MR)
- Told.

2) You've mentioned that you done a project Flying Ads. Tell me about that.
- Told the description and 2 more simple questions in project (like: How do you navigate from a form to another page? in html and some attributes in the form tag)

3) The final and best thing was done here for me.
- They asked me to write code for swapping of 2 numbers without using 3rd variable.
- They expected the answer in normal way but I did in a Single line statement.

He was very glad towards my answer and verified by giving values to that single line statement. He was smiley then and said well done Tharun. Now you can leave. I too felt happy for giving right answers. They intimated me after an hour that I've cleared the round and the next day was HR.

I had refer complete profile of TCS but the thing happened is HR (lady) didn't asked me about the company. She asked :

1) Tell me about yourself!!!
- Told.

2) What are your Strengths and Weakness?
- Told.

3) Where do you implement your Teamwork which was mentioned in your Resume?
- Told.

4) Will you watch movies?
- Yes.

5) What is your recent movie?
- Told.

6) Narrate the movie?
- Told, but some communication went wrong.

She said "you have to improve your English some more".
- Ok mam.

Finally I received an offer letter on 26th December. Felt happy and received joining after Pongal. My joining is on March 28th at Trivandrum (which is almost after 4 months after written test).
